Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of milk system detection, and particularly relates to a method for determining calcium 6S-5-methyltetrahydrofolate in a milk system by high performance liquid chromatography. Background Art
[0002] (6S)-5-Methyltetrahydrofolate calcium (C) crystal form ((6S)-5-MTHF-Ca), namely naturalized (active) folic acid, is an upgrade of the production process on the basis of the original active folic acid: removing processing aids such as heavy metal catalysts, formaldehyde and benzenesulfonic acid that are harmful to embryonic development, and strictly controlling impurities with potential safety hazards in JK12A. The product not only has the structure of natural folic acid but also has the safety of natural folic acid. At the same time, the (6S)-5-methyltetrahydrofolate calcium (C) crystal form has excellent stability.
[0003] In China, the application of (6S)-5-methyltetrahydrofolate calcium (C) crystal form is still in its infancy, and the common product forms on the market still remain at dietary supplements. Milk contains rich nutritional components and bioactive components. Strengthening the milk system with (6S)-5-MTHF-Ca can achieve the purpose of supplementing folic acid and at the same time meet the human body's needs for a variety of nutrients.
[0004] At present, a systematic detection method for (6S)-5-MTHF-Ca in a milk system has not been established. Compared with the microbiological method for determining folic acid content in dairy products in existing patents, the high performance liquid chromatography method is simple to operate, easy to master, has higher stability and stronger accuracy. Patent publication number CN116718714A is applicable to the detection of calcium 6S-5-methyltetrahydrofolate in cosmetics, and its main recovery rates are 85.57%, 86.78%, 84.78%, and the average recovery rate is 85.81%. The determination method of precision is not disclosed; this patent is applicable to the detection in a milk system. Compared with CN116718714A, a protective agent is added during the sample pretreatment process in this patent. Two protective agents are jointly used in this patent to better avoid oxidative degradation, reduce the sampling amount, and change the extraction agents n-butanol and chloroform to non-toxic acetic acid, making the sample pretreatment process safer and more effective, and the final recovery rate is also greatly improved. At the same time, a precision determination method is given. Therefore, the method for determining (6S)-5-MTHF-Ca in a milk system by high performance liquid chromatography is innovative and will play a role in corresponding food detection in the future.

The concentration is 200 μg / mL; S3: Respectively pipette 0.10 mL to 5.00 mL of 6S-A into a 100 mL brown volumetric flask, and dilute it to the scale with liquid milk.

[0009] Furthermore, the fortified milk powder in S2 must be dissolved with warm water at a ratio of 2% w / v.
[0010] Compared with the existing technology with the publication number CN116718714A, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: It has been experimentally proven in the present invention that the combined use of two reducing substances during the sample treatment process can block the degradation of (6S)-5-MTHF-Ca, improve the stability, and thus improve the recovery rate of (6S)-5-MTHF-Ca. The average recovery rate of (6S)-5-MTHF-Ca fortified milk in the present invention is 97.8%, and the RSD is 0.56%. The average recovery rate of (6S)-5-MTHF-Ca fortified milk powder is 97.9%, and the RSD is 0.42%. In the existing technology CN116718714A, the recovery rates are 85.57%, 86.78%, 84.78%, the average recovery rate is 85.81%, and the RSD is 1.17%. Obviously, the recovery rate of the present invention is significantly higher than that of the comparative document and has reached the optimal value.
[0011] This patent uses high performance liquid chromatography to determine the content of (6S)-5-MTHF-Ca in fortified milk systems, filling the gap in the systematic detection method for (6S)-5-MTHF-Ca in fortified milk systems. At the same time, it also innovates the method for removing proteins in milk systems.
